Answer:

Option B. 3660000 J

Explanation:

At the sea level, we'll assume that the height is 0 m. Hence, the potential energy at the sea level is zero.

Next, we shall determine the potential energy at a height of 366 m above the sea level. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 1000 kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Height (h) = 366 m

Potential energy (PE) =?

PE = mgh

PE = 1000 × 10 × 366

PE = 3660000 J

From the calculations made above, we can see clearly that the potential energy of the car at a height of 366 m above sea level is 3660000 J.

Hence, the potential energy of the car increases from 0 at the sea level to 3660000 J at 366 m above the sea level.

When a certain air-filled parallel-plate capacitor is connected across a battery, it acquires a charge of magnitude 172 μC on ea
crimeas [40]

Answer:

k = 2.279

Explanation:

Given:

Magnitude of charge on each plate, Q = 172 μC

Now,

the capacitance, C of a capacitor is given as:

C = Q/V

where,

V is the potential difference

Thus, the capacitance due to the charge of 172 μC will be

C = \frac{(172\ \mu C)}{V}

Now, when the when the additional charge is accumulated

the capacitance (C') will be

C' = \frac{(172+220)\ \mu C)}{V}

or

C' = \frac{(392)\ \mu C)}{V}

now the dielectric constant (k) is given as:

k=\frac{C'}{C}

substituting the values, we get

k=\frac{\frac{(392\ \mu C)}{V}}{\frac{(172)\ \mu C)}{V}}

or

k = 2.279

an object of mass 8 kg is whriled round in a vertical circle of radius 2m with a constant speed of 6m/s .Then the maximum and mi
algol13

Answer:

Maximum Tension=224N

Minimum tension= 64N

Explanation:

Given

mass =8 kg

constant speed = 6m/s .

g=10m/s^2

Maximum Tension= [(mv^2/ r) + (mg)]

Minimum tension= [(mv^2/ r) - (mg)]

Then substitute the values,

Maximum Tension= [8 × 6^2)/2 +(8×9.8)] = 224N

Minimum tension= [8 × 6^2)/2 -(8×9.8)]

=64N

Hence, Minimum tension and maximum Tension are =64N and 2224N respectively

The USDA recommends that women consume about 2000 Calories per day and men consume about 2500 Calories per day. How much average
professor190 [17]

Answer:

   1500 W to 2200 W

Explanation:

Every person does work in his daily day to day life. A person needs energy in order to perform work. And the energy consumed by an individual while performing a daily work is directly responsible to the mount of oxygen consumed by the person.

The USDA is the federal agency which looks after the food and agriculture matters of the US government. It deals with and formulates different policies and laws for the country and it s people. It recommends about 2000 calories per day for women and for men it recommends about 2500 calorie per days of food intake.

Accordingly, the average power required by a human body for doing regular work is in the range of 1500 W to 2200 W.
